About the Course

Why do government entities have boards? Most exist for very different reasons to those of their private sector ‘counterparts’ – if indeed, any exist.

Why are some boards attractive to ‘outsiders’ and others turnover new directors regularly?

This 2 day course will examine developments in Australian (public sector) boards, compare public and private sectors, look at different approaches to boards across Australia.

There will be opportunities to reflect on your experience with boards; hear about others in Australia and around the world; identify ways of improving output and outcomes from boards; learn about best and
worst practices in government governance; and develop tools and techniques to assist and improve performance.

The course gives a comprehensive grounding in all the basic aspects of modern governance as they relate to the public sector in Australia, including the development of principles for sound governance and ideas about best practice.
